Wikipedia definition
2. Lens hoodIn photography, a lens hood or lens shade is a device used on the end of a lens to block the sun or other light source in order to prevent glare and lens flare. The geometry of the lens hood can vary from a plain cylindrical or conical section (much like a lamp shade) to a more complex cut sometimes called a petal, tulip or flower hood, which produce a reasonable good shade without blocking the field of view of the lens and thus producing vignetting.
